Research direction

Start with the PHP reproduction using Parser and statements[0]->build(), then inspect how the MySQL versioned comment in the CREATE TABLE statement is tokenized and rendered. Done means the generated SQL no longer includes the comment's closing marker after DEFAULT NULL, with regression coverage for this example.
